"Bush claims no recession for US"
That's certainly good news. Because, I mean, you know, from here it certainly looks like a recession - but clearly it's not.
Oh, wait,
Definitions of recession on the Web:
* A significant decline in general economic activity extending over a period of time.
Yes, it is!

"Also slated to debut this spring is the original science fiction action thriller "Trenches," from Shane Felux, the critically acclaimed filmmaker and creator of "Pitching George Lucas" and "Star Wars Revelations," which became online sensations. Set in another time, on another planet, "Trenches" begins in the waning days of a grueling war. A botched rescue attempt forces a young soldier and his unit to team up with their enemy to survive a brutal threat and escape the planet."
We're still getting mentioned, years after the fact. Good Stuff!
Back in November Gina did some work on Law & Order: Criminal Intent. She had a really short scene with Andrew McCarthy and, at the time, there was some confusion about what the terms were. However, after talking to SAG and patiently waiting it out we just got the call and they are sending her a contract for that days work.
This is a really big deal for us as it means that she will get the difference between what she got paid that day, and the new terms of the contract, and residuals going forward. This represents the first time time either of us will getting any residuals for any of our work and needless to say we're really excited about it.
The dogs of war have been let slip, back to North Carolina. Families around me have been restructured, and my life has settled back into the dull roar that is the usual level of chaos I am more comfortable with.
If, in my more recent post, any of my regular readers were put off, or misunderstood where my anger was being directed, just let me say; I was not talking about you. We're still cool, I was just grumpy and railing at the universe.
Meanwhile, as I say, things here are returning to that state that I laughably refer to as 'normal'.
On the acting front, Gina and I both got a little screen time on the most recent episode of the HBO show "The Wire". We're also expecting to get a little more time in the final episode.
Also I've been hitting the gym pretty hard these past few weeks and I can report that, for the first time, I was able to run 2 full miles. I'm only running about 4.5 MPH and I need to take it up to 6 MPH, but I'm making some serious progress and that's good.
This made me feel like I did when I was an adolescent reading "Heavy Metal" magazine.
I found it on "Posthuman Blues" so thanks out to them.
